chapter 9: New entry
Three days ago, Delhi University was closing for preparation holidays....
Pruthvi's mother wanted him to attend a ritual being performed at the Kashi Vishwanath temple for the wellbeing of the family. This was compulsory for the family members to attend. She had invited the Shastri family as well.

Maanas was busy preparing for his exams and Ravi was busy with his bank's internal audit as he was a bank manager. Gayathri being a dancer and a doctor, had all her schedules fixed. All of them decide to send Meenakshi and Pruthvi to Udaipur.

Pruthvi promises to bring Meenakshi back on the day of his exam and forcibly takes her along. Meenakshi had no worry about the exam as she was a hardworking and bright student. She was well prepared for her exams.

Both of them leave for the airport in a cab. Unfortunately, they get stuck in traffic and were waiting for the signal to be green. Just then, a girl hops into their car. She covers herself with a scarf and hides in the front seat.

They both and the cab driver also get scared and begin questioning her. She keeps looking around but doesn't respond. The signal turns green, and the cab driver instantly moves his car. He parks the car aside after crossing the signal.

She takes a deep breath and turns around and thanks all three of them. The cab driver asks her, "Madam, who are you? Why did you get in...?? please leave ....."

"I'm Priya Mathur. A student of Delhi University. I just managed to save a girl from being raped but I wasn't able to save myself....." that girl replied

"How do we believe you??" asked Meenakshi.

"Here you go..." saying this, Priya shows them her ID card. She was pursuing her MBA in HR Management. Pruthvi and Meenakshi were pursuing MBA in Finance and hence didn't know her. She was their junior.

Pruthvi introduces himself and Meenakshi to her.

"Where do you wanna go??" Meenakshi asked. Unexpectedly, she received a question in reply from Priya. "where are you going?"

"To the airport...." Pruthvi said.

"Okay, drop me there.... I'll fly home. It's been six months since I've been there." said Priya.

They drop her at the airport. She gives her share of money to the cab and rushes as there was exactly 50 minutes left for boarding of her flight. She drops her passport in the cab. Meenakshi and Pruthvi pick it up but plan to return it in the university as there was exactly 40 minutes left for boarding of their flight and they had to rush.
Both of them fly down to Udaipur.
